How Your Recommendations Work
By analyzing your health concerns, genetic risks, lab results, and lifestyle, we give you tailored advice to meet your unique needs. Whether you're managing symptoms, tackling health conditions, reaching wellness goals, or optimizing your lifestyle, your recommendations support you every step of the way.
Access your recommendations anytime by selecting Recommendations from the navigation menu at the top of the screen.
Before you get started: Complete your Conditions & Goals questionnaire for the most personalized recommendations. Get started here.
How Recommendations Are Prioritized
Your My Recommendations page shows personalized suggestions ranked by priority. The recommendations at the top are the most relevant to you, based on:
- Your reported symptoms, conditions, and health goals
- Genetic risk factors that may have a larger impact on your overall health
- Lab results that are currently or previously outside optimal ranges
- High-risk patterns identified in your lifestyle assessments
The more areas a recommendation applies to, the higher it appears on your list.
Your Top 3 Recommendations
Your top 3 recommendations for overall health are highlighted because they're backed by extensive research and proven to be highly effective. They may seem straightforward, but that's because what works, really works. If your top 3 seem obvious, it's a sign you're already on the right track.
Unlock More Insights With Biohacker Mode
Want to explore deeper? Turn on Biohacker Mode to access in-depth information on popular biohacking areas such as single genes, amino acids, and neurotransmitters. Biohacker Mode is off by default so you see only the most impactful data and recommendations.
Note: Biohacker Mode includes recommendations we haven't yet found clinical trials for. You can also filter to see only recommendations backed by clinical trials.
Filter and Find Your Recommendations
Filter by Type
Use the Supplement, Dietary, and Lifestyle filters to view only the recommendations that match your preferences.
Use Advanced Filters
For even more specific recommendations, use the Advanced Filter feature to filter by category, topic, or labs. You can also use the Quick Filter options to see recommendations related to your Symptoms, Conditions & Goals, or your Non-Optimal Labs.
Select Apply Filters, and your recommendations will be optimized to your preferences. Combine multiple filters to refine your results and tailor them to your specific needs.
Search for Recommendations
If the filters aren't quite right, use the search feature. Enter keywords describing a recommendation, condition, or lab result, and we'll show you where that recommendation falls on your prioritized list.
Understand Your Recommendations
Click any recommendation to see a detailed breakdown of the specific lab markers and genetic predispositions it addresses. These risks are ranked by severity to help you prioritize.
Select Show all DNA predispositions to view the full list of genetic risks targeted by that recommendation.
Click any lab marker or genetic predisposition to learn how the recommendation addresses it. A detailed window will open showing the recommendation's impact score, evidence score, and full explanation.
